Burford School History Department Crime & Punishment Student Burford School History Department Crime & Punishment Student & Parent Information Booklet 1 Dear Parents and Students This booklet has been put together to help you understand more about what students study in History across KS4, how students are assessed and what the History Department at Burford does to help all students achieve their potential in this subject. By working together – teachers, students and parents – there is a greater chance that students will succeed. We would ask parents to read this booklet with their child, and then both to sign below.

These should be underlined with a ruler. • Write in blue or black ink (unless your teacher tells you otherwise). • Use a pencil for drawing. • Keep your work as neat as you can. • Respond to any feedback given by your teacher – this may be answering questions, completing a given task or finishing a piece of work. It is expected that you will do this before your teacher next marks your book. • Listen in silence when someone is talking. Respect everyone’s opinion. • Put your hand up rather than calling out. • Join in with lessons by asking and answering questions. Do the best you can do. • Make sure you clearly label classwork (c/wk) and homework (h/wk). • Ensure homework is completed on time and to the best of your ability. • If you miss a lesson due to illness, a music lesson or another activity it is your responsibility to ensure that you catch up with any work missed. 4 How will I be assessed in History? There are three exam papers which you will sit in Year 11 (Summer 2018). These exams will be graded using the new 9-1 grading structure. For a rough comparison of how A*-G and 9-1 grades compare, please see the table below: Current Scale New Scale Top half of A* 9 Bottom half of A* 8 A 7 B, B+ 6 C+, B 5 C, C- 4 D and E+ 3 E, E-, F+, F 2 F- and G 1 U 0 In the three exam papers you will be tested on the following objectives: 5 What do the exam papers look like? Paper 1 1 Hour 15 Minutes Section A Whitechapel, c1870–c1900: crime, policing and the inner city 1. Describe two features of… (4 Marks) 2. (a) Study Sources A and B in the Sources Booklet.

You may use the following in your answer: • • You must also use information of your own. (12 Marks) 5. / 6. ‘STATEMENT’ (20 Marks) How far do you agree? Explain your answer. You may use the following in your answer: • • You must also use information of your own. (Total for spelling, punctuation, grammar and use of specialist terminology = 4 marks) (Total for Question 5/6 = 20 marks) 6 Assessments The focus of assessed tasks in the History Department is on helping pupils know exactly what to do to get better at history. There will be three assessment ‘modes’ across the academic year in Key Stage 4: • Every Three Weeks: Students will have short tests consisting of 10 questions based on factual knowledge (names, dates and events). Substantive knowledge is crucial to ensure students’ progress in History; these regular tests will ensure that students are building this knowledge in the long-term and will enable teachers to assess students’ learning and grasp of chronology, knowledge and key concepts. Scores from these tests will be recorded in the front of students’ books on their ‘Progress Trackers’. • Every Half Term: Students will complete an assessment consisting of exam questions in order to assess their progress. There will be three Common Assessment Points across the year which will feed into reviews. • Mock Exams: Students will complete their mock exams in May of Year 10 and December of Year 11. 7 How will my work be marked? You will regularly complete exam practise questions both in class and at home. When your exam questions are marked you will be given formative feedback. This feedback will include specific comments about what you have done well, identify any errors and misconceptions and provide you with specific targets for improvement. You will then be given opportunities within your lessons to respond to feedback and improve their work. Literacy is a vital aspect of studying History; this is assessed in the longer mark (16 mark) questions on the exam papers. Examiners will not just focus on spelling, punctuation and grammar but also the use of specialist historical terminology. The following is a guide to the marking symbols that will be used on some of your work. Please note: you will not find every mistake corrected. This is because it is important for you to check your work for yourself. Symbol What it means S in margin Underline incorrect spelling and write the correct one above. P in margin Punctuation error – write in the missing punctuation or correct what is wrong (e.g. comma instead of a full stop). SS Poor sentence structure. WW Wrong word (e.g. two, to and too). EXP Poor expression – this may mean that you have used slang or that what you have written does not make sense. // New paragraph needed. 8 What can I do outside of my History lessons? The following are books, films and documentaries that would be worth looking at outside of lessons to further your knowledge and understanding of Crime and Punishment through Time. Crime and Punishment: • BBC GCSE Bitesize Crime and punishment www.bbc.co.uk/education/to pics/z3gg87h Range of clips from documentaries including witchcraft, Fry and the development of the police. • Derek William Bentley ’A victim of British justice?’ www.capitalpunishmentuk.org/Bentley Detailed account of the Bentley case. • Met Police http://content.met.police.uk /Site/history detailed chronology of the Met Police force. • Tolpuddle Martyrs Museum www.tolpuddlemartyrs.org.uk • Tony Robinson’s Crime and Punishment (Channel 4, 2008) • Pierrepoint - a 2005 British film directed by Adrian Shergold about the life of British executioner Albert Pierrepoint. • Let Him Have It! Film focusing on the Derek Bentley Case. Outside of your History lessons there are a number of things you can do to help your learning including: • Catch up with any worked missed due illness, a music lesson or another activity. • Regular revise and revisit topics studied by creating revision cards or mind maps as you go along; this will help develop and reinforce your knowledge.
